  1. My friend told me about these & I was skeptical. I looked online for reviews & wow. Pretty good, people said. These are a sticky mess. I personally didn’t care for them. But I could see where kids might. They were fun to make. So, glad I tried them. BTW, they don’t keep very well at all. So, make the day you’re gonna try them out. I think they’d do well in the freezer. But once on a plate, they will stick really bad. Sorry for the low review. But I’m sure others might like. Especially kids. It’s a sticky hot mess lol.
     
  2. These are AMAZING! My kids and I were eating them before they even had a chance to cool. We loved them. If I could give them 10 stars, I definitely would. YUMMY! YUMMY! YUM! YUM! YUM!
     
  3. These are UNBELIEVABLE! One of our favorites. They are also MEGA-ADDICTIVE. VERY EASY and highly recommended!
     
  4. What an interesting and tasty cookie! I couldn't try them personally due to allergies, but everyone said they were good. They liked the sweet and salty combo! made for PAC-Spring 09
